“Unlikely Animals is a tragicomic novel about familial expectations, imperfect friendships, and the possibility of resurrecting that which had been thought irrevocably lost.”
I just loved this book. Delightful, mysterious, funny and quirky. As the story unfolds, it's being narrated by dead people in the local cemetery (brilliant!). The characters are sweet, memorable, very 'normal' and relatable, and there is some true history behind the story about a mansion in New Hampshire that was started by an animal lover and eventually turned into hunting grounds for the wealthily called 'The Millionaires' Hunt Club.' This book has such funny humour that I found myself laughing aloud many times. A fantastic tragic comedy.
